<b><font size="+1"><font face="monospace">A bit steep on price for a
low / no gain antenna, but works quite well is the Comet B-10
NMO antenna. I'm on my second one now, so I thought enough of
it to purchase a second one when the first one, well, uh, umm,
err, well I forgot to remove it before going through the full
service car wash.<br>

bought a Nagoya UT-308UV mobile antenna because it claimed to be a
dual band antenna (2 meter and 70cm).
<br>
<br>
It is not, SWR at 446.000 MHz is 1.0 (great!) BUT at 146.54 MHz
the SWR is 3.94!
<br>
So I really just have a UHF antenna.
<br>
<br>
Does anyone have a suggestion for a mobile 2 meter antenna?

Car clearance is 24" for roof, 39" for trunk.

Thanks,
